2 weeks!

My baby is 2 weeks old Thursday!  I cannot believe how fast these past 2 weeks have flown by.  Here are some pics I took of him in his LSU hat that Ms. Glenda (from work) gave him.  I absolutely love it and will be looking for the pattern to make more for him :)





Nicole, here is the football hat.  I think it's a little big, but he will definitely grow into it, don't you think?  Can't wait til football season now!

Our Son {Pride & Joy}

Well I've been meaning to post for, oh... a week or so now and somehow haven't managed to make myself sit in front of the computer long enough to upload pictures, much less make a post.  Sad, but true.  So with no further adew, let me show you our pride and joy we call Trevor, Sweet Pea, Little Man, and Buddy :)

Thanks to Auntie Lea-Lea for the LSU hat :) and cookies too!

 First bath.  He hated it!  Me after a long night... bet you can't tell?
 All bundled up... you can see how yellow he was at one point.  But managed not to have to be under lights, hooray!
 Had to supplement with formula...boooo... but somehow when the container was empty he held it up with just a finger or two.

This past week and a half has brought about phenomenal changes in our life.  We are so happy to finally have our little man here and have enjoyed him so much.  He is really an amazing kid coming out of this whole bilirubin thing with flying colors and even managed to gain 10oz in 1 weeks time.  I was so happy to get that news @ the pediatrician's office Friday.  I am so happy to be his Mommy and Markus has done beautifully as well.  We could not ask for more :)  More to come later.  If you want the details click on the side bar for the "Adventures of Trevor" where I plan to flood that blog with all the real life happenings :)

Just What I Needed

Markus got the mail today, and like any other day I expected to see bills, catalogs, and stupid credit card offers.  I was presently surprised when I had all of the above except for stupid credit card offers.  In their place I had an envelope addressed to me, but with some other weird street name.  I just stared at it and wondered how it go to me when it was addressed to Old Newport Ave.  Hmph?  Knowing I don't live on that street or anything close to it, I looked for the return address and there was none.  Of course I was dying to know what was inside and who it could have come from, because I obviously need to give them my address, right?  It was a handwritten letter (in pencil) on loose leaf paper from one of my young women at church.  It brought a big smile to my face as the first paragraph addressed my soon to be son and how they would miss me @ church but hope I have fun with him :).  Anxious, I kept reading.  She went on to say about how she was going through a rough time and how I have helped her to see things from a different perspective.  Closing with, "I just wanted to say thanks for being such a good example, leader and friend."  I was speechless, even more so when I noticed the letter wasn't signed.  No name.  Unfortunately I'm not good enough to know each of my girls handwriting, but I have a clue.  And boy was that just what I needed to read today.  What a sweet reminder of how God works in our lives.  Right when I think I'm teaching them, they teach me.  I'm going to miss them to pieces too.  I have enjoyed being with them every Sunday and watching them blossom.  It is really something the Young Women's program in my church.  Oh how I love it!  May my sweet girl who wrote me this letter know that I love her and that I'm here when she needs me even though I might not be @ church for a little bit.  They are my heart!
